Mystery is a pup who absolutely loves nature. A true sportsman, Mystery prefers hikes over pretty much anything else. You won’t find him wearing cute hats or clothes, but he will proudly wear his signature slobber across the top of his nose. Don’t worry about wiping it off, because once you do it will come right back. Being outdoors is Mystery’s happy place because it’s where he can play with toys, roll in the grass and just soak in the sun. His adorable face and enthusiastic movements can only be described as goofy (in the best way possible) and will provide hours of enjoyment for both you and him. Mystery loves tennis balls and belly rubs, and has an affinity for wildlife (think birds and squirrels) in a less-than-friendly way. But, like any true outdoorsman, he has a soft spot – after a day of soaking in the sun, Mystery would love nothing more than to crack open a cold bowl of water and lay his head on your lap. His preference is to be your one and only, so there should be no other dogs in the home. Mystery has been at the shelter since Oct. 21, 2022. If he sounds like your kind of pup, meet him at APS of Durham today!
